The Black Tower by David R. Beshears is a collection of novellas all based on a TV miniseries of the same name. The strange black tower stands 80 floors tall, each floor a different world. When a team of scientists decides to travel up every floor, they don’t reckon on what they will face. A peaceful clearing, surrounded by alien vegetation and four trails leading away—a dead body in the center. Which trail should they take? A ghost town on a lake, a night train with a difference, and much more. Will the team make it to the top unharmed? And what will they find there?
The Black Tower by David R. Beshears is one of the most unique books I’ve ever read. Each episode tells a different story, but they all connect, keeping the reader’s interest high—you just don’t know what you are going to face in the next chapter. This is a real mixture of sci-fi and horror, packed with suspense and a wonderful cast of characters. Each person is developed well, real people that you can easily relate to, and you’ll soon understand each one’s role in the series. This is the kind of book that you might decide to read one episode a day, but once you start reading, you’ll struggle to put it down. The threads of each story weave together, wrapping you up like a spider with its prey and holding on tight until you reach the thrilling conclusion. If you love a story that holds your attention and offers something completely new with each chapter/episode, this is the book for you. I would love to know if this is it or if there’s a sequel in the offing.
